Chaos in M(atrix) Theory

arXiv:hep-th/9710032

Abstract

We consider the classical and quantum dynamics in M(atrix) theory. Using a simple ansatz we show that a classical trajectory exhibits a chaotic motion. We argue that the holographic feature of M(atrix) theory is related with the repulsive feature of energy eigenvalues in quantum chaotic system. Chaotic dynamics in N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is also discussed. We demonstrate that after the separation of "slow" and "fast" modes there is a singular contribution from the "slow" modes to the Hamiltonian of the "fast" modes.
